Are dermal fillers safe?

Yes. I use only products with proven safety record. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a substance which occurs naturally in the body. The brands of dermal fillers used are of a high standard. As with any invasive procedure  there are risks involved – I am trained to deal with any complications that arise with dermal filler treatments

Are there any side effects from treatments?

Injection-related reactions: these reactions may include redness at the injection site after the treatment.

Bruising – occurs when small blood vessels get punctured and leak into the soft tissue beneath. The risk of bruising can be reduced by following the pre- treatment advice given at the consultation, applying arnica cream post procedure and intermittent use of ice packs to the bruising section. Arnica cream and intermittent use of ice packs helps to reduce any swelling.

Infection – as with all injections aesthetic procedures carry a risk of infection. The syringe is sterile and the injected area will be thoroughly cleansed with an antiseptic solution before the procedure. Post procedure advice is to touch the area as little as possible especially during the first 24 hours  to further reduce the chances of infection being introduced.

Swelling (Dermal Fillers)  –  Swelling is normal following your treatment with injectable fillers and may last for several days. Arnica cream and intermittent use of ice packs helps to reduce any swelling.
Pain (Dermal Fillers) – Once the effects of the numbing cream and lidocaine (local anaesthetic) within the syringe have worn off you may experience some pain. Paracetamol can be taken however aspirin and ibuprofen should be avoided as they can exacerbate bruising.
